Preventing Wildfires: Practical Steps for Safety and Preparedness

Preventing wildfires requires vigilance, preparation, and a commitment to safety. By regularly checking weather conditions, keeping fire safety tools at hand, using a shovel with a minimum overall length of 46 inches, and postponing work on Red Flag Warning days, you can significantly reduce the risk of wildfires.

These practical measures not only protect your property but also help safeguard your community and the natural environment from the devastating effects of wildfires.

Stay informed, stay prepared, and always prioritize safety by utilizing the Prevent Wildfires Flyer.
